Is this supposed to make multicast work in a jail? In the past I
tried some simple tests (e.g. mtest(8)), but I wasn't able to
receive anything in a jail (this test was triggered by the fact,
that some avahi-tools from the avahi port didn't showed an expected
result).
Not really, no, I have just been making my best guess here. I would
hope bz would join in once it's checked in -- as I understand it,
jails are a difficult case for multicast (and broadcast) sockets
because of how they change how address lookup works. Other than that
I have done no testing with jails.
I believe the code will continue to work as-is, however others are
welcome to test and contribute once it's in.
Thanks for the info. I hope the vimage stuff will change this
situation regardless of the fact if someone jumps in and makes the
current stuff work or not.
Bye,
Alexander.
